Stillness Between Sparks

I’m sitting in the dark,

the screen goes blue

Counting all the words I never sent to you

Footsteps in the hall,

then nothing moves

I hold my breath until the morning proves If I reach out,

will I fade away?

If I speak up,

will you want me to stay?

The ceiling spins, the city’s far I’m learning how to trust this

scar (ahhhh)

Sitting in the dark,

but my heart stays loud

I’m breaking through the silence of this crowd

When the night gets sharp,

I’ll open my arms

Find my own light,

even under alarms (oh-oh)

(oh-oh, oh-oh)

The clock won’t talk,

it just stares at me

A hundred little fears in a quiet key

I tie my hopes

to a fraying thread

Still I hear your name in the things you said

So I run straight through the maybe Past the lines that try

to cage me If I fall,

I fall in time To a beat that’s finally mine (ahhhh)

Sitting in the dark,

but my heart stays loud

I’m breaking through the silence

of this crowd

When the night gets sharp,

I’ll open my arms

Find my own light,

even under alarms (oh-oh)

Turn the volume down,

hear the truth inside

I’m not just what I hide A single spark can start the

whole sky So I let the tears go dry (ooh)

Sitting in the dark,

but my heart stays loud

I’m breaking through the silence

of this crowd

When the night gets sharp,

I’ll open my arms

Find my own light,

even under alarms (oh-oh) (oh-oh)
